#  Spring Symposium 

 



 Another important goal of the Landry Cancer Biology Consortium is to empower graduate students and foster leadership skills. For that reason, the Co-Chairs initiated a Spring Symposium largely organized by graduate students. This annual event inspires and motivates the student cancer biology community through invited seminars including short talks by our KGCRF CCA awardees and/or poster competition winners and faculty talks both on research and career path.

 Since 2017, the Spring Symposium includes the [Karin Grunebaum Cancer Research Foundation Poster Competition](/karin-grunebaum-poster-competition) funded by the [Karin Grunebaum Cancer Research Foundation](https://www.grunebaumfoundation.org). The monetary prizes go towards professional development.
